2 hurt in drive-by shooting

Police search for shooters

Police found two people suffering from gunshot wounds near 37th and Himebaugh late Friday night.

A police spokesperson said the victims told officers they were driving home from a gas station just minutes before the shooting around 11:45 p.m.

The victims said an unknown vehicle, driven by a person they didn't recognize, pulled up next to them, police reported. When the victims turned down Redick Avenue to try to get away, someone in the suspect vehicle shot at them, striking their car several times.

Police said the suspect vehicle left the area in an unknown direction.

The victims have been identified as 25-year-old Donnell Pierce and 56-year-old Vernita Hadley. There's no word on their condition, but police said they suffered non-life threatening injuries.
